hey everyone Jimmy with Jim's review room many folks we're buds in the gym or while running but sport earbuds they give you the added protection of being sweat and dust resistant not to mention they're usually built a little bit more rugged Jabra offers this with their sport pace model at the retail price of $99 but what is unique besides offering sound for your music of course these earbuds provides you information about your workouts in real time now get into detail about that pretty shortly now I'll make this video part 1 of 2 and I also suggest watching part 2 here which is a very similar model that Java provided me the Jabra sport coach it features a different design and some different features as well unless you can always click on the link in the video description below for the most updated pricing so without further adieu I'm Jimmy with gyms review room my channel is here to help you make a purchase decision welcome everyone to another review going over the physical features first there's no question this looks like the powerbeats2 if you prefer the stability of the ear hooks rather than the wingtips on the drawbar sportcoat these are the way to go up top that your hooks are flexible yet they do stay in a fixed position although they don't hold its form after you bend them to offer a more versatile fit they feel perfectly fine and the comfort was no problem at all but more my comfort test a little bit later moving down the left earbud features a microUSB port for charging with Jabra climbing a battery life of up to 5 hours from my testing of leaving this on all day at 50 percent volume with two 15-minute runs in between I was able to achieve 4 hours and 24 minutes of use which when you do compared to other wireless sport Bluetooth earphones the up to 5 hours or my actual results are a bit on the low side but to be fair besides the JBL model that I have listed here the sport pays for draw bruh actually cost significantly less remitting on the Left earbuds on the outside of device there's a small button to answer phone calls and when pressed during a workout gives you information on your current performance of our construction on these are all hard plastic which held up well when throwing these into my bag and probably even worse here into my pockets but taking these out of my pocket the chords are tangle-free limiting some frustration here and the sport pace model does come with a reflective coating so you can be more visible at night while running or cycling last on the right side our volume control buttons but also works at skipping songs by holding down either volume up or down and this worked on my locally stored music plus streaming services like Pandora or iHeartRadio also be aware some earphone the bottom control buttons only work with either Apple or Android just be aware of that however it did confirm with the sport pace it does work on both platforms last as I stated earlier these are water in dust resistant Java state this is IP 54 certified with the number 5 out of 6 indicating this is of course dust resistance and the number 4 out of 9 indicating this can withstand water splashes from any direction essentially you can sweat with this on or get them wet or of course be caught in the rain and have no problems after my testing which is a little bit more aggressive don't try this at home my earbuds are still working fine and right before getting into comfort Jabra unfortunately doesn't provide a carrying case so the earbuds and the included ear tips won't be as protected as you'd like but regarding the ear tips there's three in total and they do provide a good bit of comfort although these support pace includes the ear hooks the area tops do sit somewhat in the ear canal from my experience they're not fully in your earphones but they do isolate a good bit of outside noise now I know with some runners and especially cyclists this can impact their purchase decision as it does isolate your surroundings may be causing a dangerous environment but on the other end having some sound isolation does provide an immersive experience allowing you to hear music and the audio cues much more clear so you guys can be the judge on that but these worked out great in regards to staying in my ear where they're running or maybe doing some more vigorous exercises like jumping jacks maybe some push ups here or running up an oddly shaped Hill the earbuds never fell out of my ear nor did I lose audio isolation but before getting into the sound test Jabra and their sport lineup of earphones differentiates from other sport earphones that just basically plays audio by offering a very comprehensive app to help supplement your workouts on the main page any of the metrics you see on screen you can customize and have it show different bits of information on this page you can select either distance calories burned average pace speed in your split pace moving down you can segment your work and label it as any of the filing you see on your screen and if you need to feel free to rewind the video here or pause it if I'm going a little too fast you can choose free mode which will measure most of your basics for you or you can set goals before you start an activity you can target a specific distance time calories to burn target pace which is my favorite or interval training now while you're working out the app through your earphones will provide audio cues and your current progress for example while you're running this will indicate how much distance you've ran indicate your pace time etc without the need to take out your phone last you can select your music and I'm glad you can choose local music store on your phone but choosing show more you have a bunch of others to choose from like Pandora iHeartRadio even twitch for example but let's start a running segment here and just see how that works when you initiate a run your phone's GPS will kick in to track your distance and help with calculating your pace speed and other various data during the run as stated earlier you can tap on the button on the left side of the earphone to get all this information in your ear but if you prefer to pull out your phone distance in duration are shown right from the factory but like I said I can always change this information displayed by just a simple tab also and before I forget to mention comparing to the Jabra sport pulse and the Jarboe sport coach the apps are very similar at first glance but there are different metrics that are displayed for each one example I didn't see cadence being available for running on here as it was indeed available on the Jabra coach again watch part 2 if you want to see what else is offered swiping right much more information is displayed again all customizable and the very last page is a real-time map of your run and I'm showing you my run from the other day since I don't want to show the GPS location where my studio is currently located so once you finish here you receive a quick summary and as I always love here graphs to see your performance now for those who already using apps like endomondo RunKeeper Strava My Fitness Pal and runtastic this app does feed data to those apps for you now before going into the audio portion next here let me show you real quick what other features are on here in the menu icon you have history to see all of your runs of course but better achievements are viewable to see and compare your best week your best month and you can even compare what was your best record for the entire year there's also a fitness test which you can perform when you first get this to a baseline you performance as well and last in settings as I stated earlier during any of your workouts the earphones will periodically come on lowering the music if you have that on as well and inform you of the following information on the screen now what's also important you can select when the audio prompts comes on every minute or even up to every hour or a read out at certain marked like every half a mile or every mile that you run and for those who will be at the gym some folks leave their phone down on the ground while re-racking or may be doing deadlifts and whatnot they don't want their phone in their pocket I tested the signal strength and I was able to achieve about 35 to 40 linear feet until the audio starts to cut out a little bit here as proven here in this video so if you got a walk across the room I don't think should have any problems whatsoever finally let's talk about jobless sound signature starting with bass these do offer a good amount of bass it's not sub bass levels it's not sounding as deep as the power beats but these offer I think a very much acceptable amount of bass boost fitting from most genres of hip-hop pop and EDM and although it's a bit more basic it's clean without droning in general and not bleeding over to the mid-range the mid-range accompanies the bass levels without sounding weak yet not sounding bright either for the price of these earphones vocals and the mid-range of the instruments are done very well with clear audio that's still Pleasant and satisfying to listen to and as for the high notes there's nothing screeching there's no tinging nothing to high-pitched basically for me to listen to an experience to cause any kind of listening fatigue now overall I'm really enjoying this to be honest with you if I had to critique there isn't much or to be a Trojan maybe any sounds separation at all or any soundstage to be present which is a bummer but yet again for the price it's not a bad experience so that's it for this review remember to check out the links in the video description if you want to check for updated pricing or to watch part two which I detail the Jabra sport coach and compare that with these here remember to show your support by liking and subscribing and if you can't do that make sure you add me
